I have no problem with BLM having good single target to go with excellent AOE. The problem is that right now many BLM's wanting a buff are comparing themselves to SMN. The problem isn't that BLM's are weak, it's that there's an imbalance between BLM and SMN where SMN has raid utility and better single target DPS. I agree this should be adjusted and they should balance out the utility/dps between those 2 classes. But now put yourself in the shoes of a MNK or DRG and compare it to a BLM. They're really not too far behind in dps, even on fights like T8. Getting any moderate buff to BLM single target is going to make MNKs and DRGs irrelevant again. People saying ridiculous things like stacking Fire III procs is the way to balance BLM make me absolutely sick. All they need to do is slightly nerf SMN single target, maybe by lowering Ruin damage or Egi base damage slightly, and then buff Fire I slightly as well.
